    I've seen the Reeves mk1 do 1:16 on a damp track at Combe, it does have a *lot* more power than Graham's though.

    Well thats that.

    After 6 years almost to the day it first ran I sold it [:^(]
    No more thrashing super cars on track no more getting pi55ed off with the tw@ on the side of the track with the black flag, oh Im going to miss it all.
    I probably wont be away from the VW thing for long, I have never lasted more than 6 months with out a MkI but it will be hard to replace that one [:^(] [:^(] [:^(] .
    It was sold to a friend and I know it will get used for what it was built for, its just going to be strange standing on the side of the track watching it from now on (but he did enough of that when I was driving it :)) .

    Any way good luck with it Paul.

    Here are the last few pics.

    Cant believe you sold it Graham. Superb Mk1, one of my all time favourite cars to watch on track.

    I was so stunned when you originally started changing this car entirely from a show piece to a track maniac. Very sad day, but im sure it will still be a good part of the track scene!!
